E-Liquid in the Eye! OUCH!

[Arja]

Ok, so I mistook e-juice for my normal eye drops and holy hell... did that hurt. My eyes are now red and swollen at the corners.

Has anyone else accidentally done this? Is this temporary and will heal itself or do I need to go see my doctor?

Help please! I'd rather NOT go to my doctor if I don't have to.

Thank you!

Holy crap! How did you confuse an e-juice bottle with eye drops? Flush your eyes repeatedly with clean water (or saline solution if you've got it). You should be okay again in a day or two.

I know... I feel so stupid. The bottles look very similar and I just wasn't paying attention.

It's happened before.

Hope you will get better so soon.

Anyway, The "saline solution" is great and the best for me to clean the attys.
